USD/CAD awaits fresh incentives
Currently, the USD/CAD pair trades -0.15% lower at 1.3244, miring near session lows reached at 1.3238. The USD/CAD pair extends its side-trend into a fifth-day on Tuesday, as markets remain cautious ahead of Thursday’s Fed rate decision, which is likely to have major impact on the US dollar.
Meanwhile, the loonie appears to have found support from the recovery seen in the oil prices, with the US oil gaining over 1% ahead of the API crude stockpiles report.
